Let’s take the sun and leave
the rain for other minds.
Let the light go straight
to the center of our brains.
Linger on the green grass
of a happier life. Home free,
but not homeless.
Let’s live in the world
inside of us where nothing can be lost.
Someplace where it’s always autumn and
there are plenty of leaves to break our fall.
Just you and me where’s there’s no them or they.
Showing the hollowed out existence,
the slamming screen door.
No longer waiting on the light
to save us but shining our
own brilliance. Knowing
if the light ever finds us,
we’ll light its way.
-Tosha Michelle
One day they will invent a word for how much I love this poem.

The whole piece was pretty flawless and the screen door line, im not sure I can explain it, but it seemed perfect, the line and the image. Fantastic poetry Tosha ☺
